The Mexican Delights

I watched the movie last 3 weeks and straight went back home and ordered the book online. Got the book yesterday and just finished it early this morning. AWESOME!!! Ten times better than the movie itself. Read it and you know what i meant... What you get from this book is a pair of separate, entertaining road comedies. It is a big deal to me since it is very hard to get a good book that based from celluloid. A very joyful and crazy reading with a lot of twists and funny lines. If i have to rate this book from 1 to 10, i would like to give 11. The book, the movie and the 2 great actors (Julia and Brad) will be my favorite things of this century.

Pretty good

For a book written based off a screenplay this is pretty decident and captures you into the plot. I suggest you pick it up even if you don't like books based off a screen play.
